I barely made it through this year coping with my severely autistic,learning disabled son being at home for the best part of it due to Covid. I struggled desperately without him at his much needed Special needs school and many a time in my darkest darkest moments thought it would be easier if we both just died..
I cried tears of relief when he eventually went back in August and went to bed everyday as soon as he left for school as I was so so exhausted, He barely sleeps and never sits down.He needs 24 hour supervision and self care assistance with everything.
Now it's happening again and I just don't know how to drag my mind and body out of this pit of dark despair that I'm fast hurtling into.I know I'm not alone doing this,its just so many things have been ill thought or given no thought,nothing seems more important than bloody covid.
